January 2, 200719 yr How 'bout John Adams? I really enjoy John Adams. His "Phrygian Gates" was what heavily inspired my "Of Dreams and Memories."
January 3, 200719 yr I love howard Shore. The lord of the rings symphony was a masterpeice. Blasphemy. The Lord of the Rings Symphony was a rehash of his score-work for the films. To hear great concert music that's tied to a film, listen to the Red Violin Chaconne by John Corigliano. It was written BEFORE the film was scored, and is therefore a truly original concert work.
January 4, 200719 yr Sorry... I know you don't know anybody.. Its okay.. John Harbison is amazing though... Pulitzer prize winner... But you would have known that if you read any of the bios I posted in this thread... Read them... And listen to his music... Now. I did... And I know LOTS of people....just none of the same ones as anyone else. ;)

I could have bought LOTS of CDs of LotR for those $300), and it holds up considerably better within the film than on the discs, where it at least has true structural integrity.
